The Sleepless Sailor
Artist: Kate Rusby
Album: Sleepless
Year: 1999
Title: The Sleepless Sailor


I once was a sailor, a young man and brave
Da da dum day, da da dum dee
My nights were once sleepless,
My peace I would crave
Carry me home to the sea

Da da dum day, da da dum dee
Drift away sailor boys on the deep sea
Worry no more for you're safe now with me
Rest in my arms and my sweet melody

One night as I'm stood on the deck in the rain
Da da dum day, da da dum dee
I heard a sweet voice and she's singing my name
Carry me back to the sea

Chorus

Oh rock me so gently now ocean so deep
Da da dum day, da da dum dee
I wish I was back, cause I think I can't sleep
Carry me home to the sea

Chorus




1965 Pearson Commander "Grace"

Cmdr Pete,

  Every time I look at that picture it makes me smile.  ;D
Satisfaction is wanting what you already have.

Pete-

What size boat is that...and do you have an actual head count... or is everybody showing in the photo?  Looks like fun... but you wouldn't want them all on the windward rail...you'd tip the wrong way...  ;)

Well, that's my Mighty Pearson Commander. 26 feet of fury.

I think the most we ever had on the boat under sail was 14. No pictures of that bit of insanity.

My Dad probably bought a Commander when I was a kid beacause he could fit all 8 children aboard.

He wasn't the best sailor, but he was fearless.  This picture is from about 5 years ago.

I hope that wasn't fourteen adults... or you must have been very, very, very, friendly with each other.
